I am pretty disillusioned with them too, and they do push an agenda in many areas (pro-military, anti-tech, etc). I loathe their opinion pages, they're a weird mix of bland and constantly pseudo-outraged. But I still like lots of stuff they create and a subscription isn't super expensive, so paying seems like the right thing to me personally. I'm just reading a newspaper, not looking for someone to marry. (I wouldn't want to marry someone who always agrees with me either, come to think of it.)
